MES Computing featured commentary from Jake Mosey, Chief Product Officer at Recast, in an article examining why many IT teams continue to use both Microsoft Intune and Configuration Manager despite Microsoft’s long-standing push toward cloud-based endpoint management. Drawing on findings from Recast’s 2026 State of Intune report, the article highlights that 62% of organizations manage endpoints with both platforms and that many view co-management as a long-term operating model rather than a temporary migration phase.
